this is a big number, but of course that is if we do nothing. in response, the mayor has also proposed several financial strategies as part of that plan. those financial strategies include one piece of those financial strategies and revenue. those opposed to be about 12% of the solutions to that problem in the five-year financial plan. this proposal that is before you is an attempt to provide a solution to that piece of our problem. the rest of the solution was coming from the expenditure side which means reducing city costs and pension reform, which the mayor has been working very hard to implement. it means reducing the size of our work force and the cost of doing business as city departments and reductions to the amount that we're able to allocate to the contractors, a wide range of policy approach is designed to close that gap and bring this back into sound basic structural financial balance over the next five years. the approach that the mayor has tried to take is to spread those -- the burden of those solutions out over multiple participan
